I had the check bit happen to me. They wrote about 15-20 checks in two days. I have online banking so I noticed it when I logged on and got the account closed. The bank gave me every dime back and charged the checks back to the merchants.

Now for the fun part...the focking merchants sent me notices for hot checks. I had to fill out fricking fraud affidavidts for each and every one of them. Pissed me off considering not one single check had the proper DL number written on the back...which tells me the merchants didn't check for ID.

It's BullSh!t...I tell Ya....pure unadulterated Bullsh!t.

Oh, boy, CitiBank strikes again.. couple years ago, it was their website and how a hacker precicely imitated it, and scammed logins, passwords, and account numbers for nefarious purposes (and part of what gave rise to Firefox as a browser--the insecurity of IE was a big part of the problem).

We got a notice from Chase back in September, some of their computers were stolen, and MIGHT have had our personal and account info on them (we changed over to Well Fargo for our investments in 2003), and so they paid for some security credit watching service for a year.

As it stands, my wife watches our accounts very closely, so nothing unusual ever escapes her notice. :tu:
